What's the Point?

I’m often asked/asking ‘What’s the Point?’. These chats do get to the ‘point’ of the humanities, in various, surprising, (often politically urgent) ways. Guests are always brilliant and their enthusiasm is catching. Each episode is generous to the listener as it navigates between the nitty-gritty of embodied lives and the abstract questions that define our cultural moment: from the smells of the past to the spectre of fascism. Props to Bryony for being highly skilled as both a conversationalist and curator of interviewees. It’s basically annoyingly good. Tell your mates.
